I have someone that wants one of these. She had had one for years for children's singalongs. Now hers is broken. If you have one laying around let me know!!! _________________ reggie.duncan.9275@facebook.com |

I've got one. I was thinking about converting it into one of those circuit-bent instruments. That'll probably never happen. It worked a year ago, last time I had it out. I'll try to dig it out today and see. Does she still have her broken one? I might just trade for it. |

Reggie,
I dug it out and it still works. Model OM-84 which is the same layout as the Series one with a couple extra features. My late friend Vernon played it a lot at home and occasionally at church. You can see where some of the labeling wore off and he relabeled it with a marker. The yellowing is just from the plastic aging, not tobacco.
I was a bit surprised to see that these things are going for actual money these days but I know Vern would have been delighted to know that it wound up in someone's hands who had a history and appreciation for the instrument, whether she's still playing it for children or just for her own enjoyment. If she's amicable to a swap for her broken one, I'll send it your way. I'll keep the oversized wall wart that I modified to use with it unless she doesn't have one. Batteries not included. Let me know and send me an address.
